As we have learned from our colleagues at Xataka , the Twitch error comes from the fulfillment of a judicial sentence by which the operators have blocked said domain at the request of Telefónica Audiovisual, which has requested it by mistake. In addition, the official account of Twitch Spain has not commented on the matter, despite leaving thousands of users without being able to see any channel on the platform .
As we said, if this problem is affecting you, you just have to follow the following steps to watch any streaming again:
- You download the Opera browser .
- You install it on your computer and open it.
